Now that I think about it, it shouldn't technically matter because the parser reads character by character. Still need to figure out what locks it up.

Yes, 1024 characters (incl \0 character) for readline.

You can fix that with:
READLINE ...
IF LEN(line$) = 1023
 INC line$, READLINE
ENDIF


Because, once Readline detects a \n character, it removes it and also removes a \r before the \n. So if the length=1023, the \n was not there.

Make a debug version, then press pause - x = INSTR() returns -1 and you assign j = x later. It's an infinite loop.
Also make sure you can handle attribute contents that can contain "=" characters.

At the end of august in 2011 I left for a year with the army.  If people still have an interest in this, I'll see about finishing it.

Welcome back!  ;) Funny enough I actually just got my hands on a project that uses this expensively, so any additions would be appreciated!
Cheers,
